Abstract
The present study aimed to compare the effects of mixed-training with different proportions of concentric velocity loss (10% vs. 30%) on muscular strength and explosive performance. Twenty healthy trained men were recruited and randomly assigned to the velocity loss of 10% (VL10) and velocity loss of 30% (VL30) for eight weeks of mixed-training. The participants performed 1RM in back squat, countermovement jump (CMJ), 10-m (T10) and 20-m (T20) sprint running before and after mixed-training. Both groups showed similar improvement in the 1RM strength (9.6% vs 9.3%). However, only the VL10 group significantly improved CMJ (6.2%), T10 (-1.7%), and T20 (-1.3%) after training. In this study, controlling the velocity loss at a lower percentage (10%) was more advantageous for explosive performance.
